Class GaussianBlur

  • public class GaussianBlur
extends Effect
    A blur effect using a Gaussian convolution kernel, with a configurable radius.

    Example: 

    
 Text text = new Text();
 text.setText("Blurry Text!");
 text.setFill(Color.web("0x3b596d"));
 text.setFont(Font.font(null, FontWeight.BOLD, 50));
 text.setX(10);
 text.setY(50);

 text.setEffect(new GaussianBlur());

    The code above produces the following:

    The visual effect of GaussianBlur on text

    Since:
    JavaFX 2.0

      • input

        public final ObjectProperty<Effect> inputProperty
        The input for this Effect. If set to null, or left unspecified, a graphical image of the Node to which the Effect is attached will be used as the input.
        Default value:
        null

      • GaussianBlur

        public GaussianBlur()
        Creates a new instance of GaussianBlur with default parameters.

      • GaussianBlur

        public GaussianBlur​(double radius)
        Creates a new instance of GaussianBlur with the specified radius.
